I lay in my lovers arms today and wept
With the beauty of a simple moment
The curves of our bodies
Sleepily intertwined
Open hearted
Connected
Breathing as one.
I lay vulnerable
And wept
Because each moment is a birth and a death
Unrepeatable
Impermanent
Beautiful
And tragic
At the same time
I felt the gift
Of being human
Of Life experiencing
Itself
Through me
Through him
How deep within each other we find the missing parts of ourselves
And become whole
If just for a moment
I lay in my lovers arms today and wept
In gratitude
For being
Open
alive
Awake
And fully human
At last.
